In our office we are on Novell Network. We are also on DSL through the one network connection. Everything is working fine except yesterday the two computers in the back cannot get on DSL anymore. They can get into the network and everything thing else ok, but no online DSL.

All of the other computers work and I even plugged in another computer next to mine with the network connection that won’t work and that computer worked ok, so it is in the two computers.

Any ideas what is wrong with these 2 computers?

Perhaps the TCP/IP settings have got messed up? (Novell can be set up to function across IPX, in which case it wouldn’t be affected)
